vectors

[John Meacham]

as an interesting tidbit, gcc now supports using vector (SIMD) types
directly as if they were normal C types in a portable way.. I wonder
how hard it would be to expose these types to the user in ghc?

 http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/Vector-Extensions.html

things like matricies and complex numbers might be greatly sped up.
